Erika Radcliffe

Erika came to circus from a career in visual arts and graphic design. She discovered a passion for rope while living in Oregon, and soon after moved to Vermont to join the Intensive Training Program at the New England Center for Circus Arts. Since completing the Intensive program in 2017, Erika continues to train, teach, create, and perform both at home and abroad.

Erika has had the pleasure of working for and touring with several well-known companies, including Cirque du Soleil, Cirque Mechanics, Troupe Vertigo, and others. In 2019, she won first place for her performance in her division in the Emerging Pro category at VIVA Festival, as well as special prizes from AIDA Casting and Cirque du Soleil Casting.

Alongside her career in circus, Erika also maintains a career in graphic design and web development. She works as the graphic designer for NECCA and is also a front-end web developer for independent clients across the country.
